The soup bowl is quite small compared to other restaurants. I remember going to an elders restaurant in NYC that had the best Deng Jang chigae. Their BOWLS were HUGE. its just a bit more soup. I definitely recommend to try this place. The Korean flavor is all there.
In the past my family would come here and have a great dinner. With the new owner, prices are higher and I would be fine with that if the quality and quantity went up too but the meat dishes and kimchi pancake quality has actually gone down. The soups were good though.
Don’t bother ordering the L.A. Galbi ($28.99), the Bulgogi ($25.99), or the Kimchi Jeon ($18.99). The quantity of food was scant and meats were served on aluminum platters that made the food get colder faster. The Galbi sat on a bed of raw onions which would normally be ok I guess if the plate was a sizzling plate but the plate was just an aluminum plate. The kimchi pancake was supposed to have kimchi and veggies but it was mainly just a starchy pancake. The restaurant was really stingy with the side dishes and the napkins for some reason.
We asked if they had a side of cooked tofu for my toddler and the server went to verify and asked us if it was ok if it was boiled and we were ok with it. We weren’t told we would be billed for a full beef tofu soup ($16.99) that just had boiled tofu in hot water. We inquired about that when the bill came and were strongly told that they don’t have sides of tofu. That would have been good to know before getting billed for a full soup.
This meal for 4 adults and a toddler ended up being $200+ after tip. We likely won’t be back.
The seafood pancake was just as disappointing. It was dry, bland, and nowhere near the standard you’d expect at this price point. Isn’t there are dipping ponzu sauce of some sort that goes with the pancake? Cause if there is, we didn’t get it. There are far better Korean restaurants in the Valley that offer better food, better portions, and better value. Even when prices are similar elsewhere, those places at least give you enough food to justify the cost.
This was our first and absolutely last visit. There’s no worse feeling than leaving a restaurant knowing you were completely ripped off and somehow the food isn’t good enough to distract you from it. Truly impressive in the worst way.
If you know nothing of korean restaurants, please at least check out Hodori, Gogi, or Stone Tofu House before coming anywhere near this place. Thank me later.
A person who ordered 해물순두부 commented it is too ‘milky.’ For the name sake of 초당, at least, their 순두부 should have been above average.
Don’t know when they close, but while we were in the middle of dining, they dimmed the light signaling to get out of the hell.
Won’t go back for sure nor recommend to anyone. I will tell the merchant who recommend the place our terrible experience.
I was in Chandler for work and, having recently returned from working in South Korea for several years, was really craving some Korean comfort food. I searched the area and was pleasantly surprised to find all of my favorite soups available for takeout at Chodang Tofu. I ordered the kimchi sundubu jjigae (김치순두부찌개) and the dwenjang jjigae (된장찌개). They were sooooooo good, I nearly cried. They tasted as good as my neighborhood halmeoni made in Korea. And the service was amazing. The kind aunty and halmeoni at Chodang Tofu gave me plenty of banchan, including some of the best kkakdugi (깍두기) and 감자조림 (braised potatoes?) I’ve had in the US. I hope to be back in Chandler soon so I can get another fill of Korean comfort food. 정말 잘 먹었습니다~ 또 올게요^^
